EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print captures a poignant moment from the biblical story of Ruth and Boaz. In this scene, Ruth approaches Boaz with humility and asks for permission to glean in his field. The vibrant colors of the print bring life to the characters and their surroundings, transporting us back to ancient times. The image beautifully portrays Ruth's courage as she seeks a way to provide for herself and her mother-in-law Naomi. It showcases her determination and resourcefulness, traits that have made her an enduring symbol of strength throughout history. Boaz, depicted as a compassionate figure, listens attentively to Ruth's request. His kind-heartedness shines through as he grants her permission without hesitation. This act of generosity not only provides Ruth with sustenance but also sets in motion a series of events that will ultimately change both their lives forever. This illustration is part of "The Children's Book of Old Testament Story" published in 1913 by Mrs C D Francis. Its inclusion in this collection speaks volumes about its timeless appeal and significance within religious literature. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded not only of the power of kindness but also the importance of compassion towards those less fortunate than ourselves. It serves as a reminder that even small acts can have profound impacts on others' lives – just like Boaz's simple act transformed Ruth's destiny.
